On Saturday, the Trail Blazers visit the Suns at Footprint Center.

It’s the first game of a three game home stand.

The Suns move to 4-1 after their win over the Clippers on Thursday.

Portland is 2-3 with their last win over the Clippers as well. They play OKC at home on Friday, so it's a back-to-back affair for them as they start a four game road trip.

The 76ers and Heat visit the Suns on Monday and Wednesday, respectively.

When: Saturday, November 2, 2024

Television: Suns Live, Arizona's Family 3TV / Arizona's Family Sports

Radio: KMVP 98.7 / S: KSUN

Time: 7 PM Arizona time

Recent Suns teams have, for the most part, struggled with not playing down to the opponents level. I hope Bud can work on this as well.
Well in my opinion the Suns have already done that against both the Clippers and Lakers. They are a much better team than both, yet managed to fall way behind to both.

Bradley Beal is listed as QUESTIONABLE.

Josh Okogie is no longer on the injury report.

looks like more dunn - even if beal is at 80% you gotta say we got this and have him get healthy - the elbow is pretty darn important in basketball

Blazers still look like a sum of parts and not a whole. Completely disjointed. I like their young talent. Billups aint it

A gut feeling based on the comebacks?

I believe falling behind early is a rotation discovery issue based on a given opponent’s scheme.

Looking really good to start the season! Bud has them playing much faster and I'm very happy about that!

Doubt he makes it to new years but that roster is like the island of misfit toys. Clingan is their only intriguing piece.
Clingan has been very meh to start and isn’t taking any meaningful minutes away from Ayton.

Grant, Sharpe, Scoot, Simmons, and even Camara are really good high potential players. That’s enough talent to at least get to the play-in game.They need a better coach and a solid veteran to get to that next level
